Intro
Am    F    C    E
Am    F    C    G

Verse 1
They Called Me AmStrong When I Needed A FHug
Said You'll Be CFine When I'd Had EGnough
So I Wiped My Own AmTears And Said "Yeah, That's FRight"
Then I Cried Myself To CSleep Alone At ENight
I Learned If You AmSmile They'll Leave You AFlone
If You Say "You're CGood" They Don't Ask For GMore
So I Made It Look AmEasy, I Covered It FUp
Nobody CKnew I Was Hurting That EMuch

Pre-Chorus
I Didn't Need FAnswers, I GDidn't Need AmMuch
I Didn't Need DmFixing, I Just Needed ELove

Chorus
I Didn't Want To Be AmStrong, I Just Needed A DmHug
Didn't Need You To GFix Me Or Clean This All CUp
I C/BNeeded SomeFbody To Tell Me It's DmFine
To Not Have It ToEgether All Of The ETime
I Needed SomeAmbody To See Through My DmSmile,
To Tell Me It's OGkay To Break For A CWhile
I C/BDidn't Need FSaving, I've Been Through EDmnough
I Didn't Want To Be EStrong
I Just Needed A AmHug  Dm     G    C I Didn't C/BWanna Be
F Strong Dm      HEmm - MEmm

Verse 2
Now Everybody AmCalls When Their World Falls ADmpart
I Know What To GSay, I Know Where To CStart
I C/BPick Up The FPieces, I Stay On The DmPhone
They Hang Up On EMe And I Handle My EOwn
And They Still Say "You're AmStrong"
Like It's Something I DmChose
Like I Never Get GTired, Like I Never Get CLow
But The C/BStronger I FLook, The Less They Show DmUp
Funny How EStrong Never Gets You ELoved

Pre-Chorus
I Don't Need FAnswers, Don't GTell Me I'Amm Tough
Don't Tell Me I'll DmMake It, Just Show Me Some ELove

Chorus
I Didn't Want To Be AmStrong, I Just Needed A DmHug
Didn't Need You To GFix Me Or Clean This All CUp
I C/BNeeded SomeFbody To Tell Me It's DmFine
To Not Have It ToEgether All Of The ETime
I Needed SomeAmbody To See Through My DmSmile
To Tell Me It's OGkay To Break For A CWhile
I C/BDidn't Need FSaving, I've Been Through EDmnough
I Didn't Want To Be EStrong
I Just Needed A AmHug  Dm     G    C I Didn't C/BWanna Be
F Strong Dm      OhEhhh OhEhhhh

Bridge
Maybe You're AmStrong 'Cuz You Had To DmBe
Maybe Nobody GAsked What You Really CNeed
C/BMaybe You're FTired Of Holding It DmUp
Maybe ToEnight You Just Need A Hug

You Don't Have To AmProve That You're Doing AlDmright
You Don't Have To GHold It Together ToCnight
You've C/BCarried EFnough, You've Been Strong EDmnough

I Didn't Want To Be EStrong
I Just Needed A AmHug  Dm     G​
